Having the Moon in an adventurous part of your chart during the Sun’s last full day in your romantic sector is not only bringing the spirit of romance and adventure together, but in harmony this is creating a sense of confidence and optimism. While the solar spotlight will shift off matters of the heart tomorrow, Jupiter is here until July 2027 and with every reason to look to the future with confidence.

A day before the Sun is due to return to your romantic sector, it crosses the lunar nodes, putting the solar spotlight on their policing of your work/life balance. While the Sun returns to your romantic sector at the same time each year, not with the lunar nodes here and not with so many reminders already delivered when it comes to your work/life balance. You have also had Venus, the planet of love move through to light the way.

The Moon is not only in your relationship sector just as the Sun has reached his last full day in your communication sector, but has formed a friendly aspect to Mercury, the planet of communication. With Mercury leaving your communication sector early next week, the Moon’s ordinary monthly visit to your relationship sector is in time to draw on the maximum amount of support from the communication gods.

At the same time that the Moon is drawing closer to its return to your relationship sector tomorrow, the Sun is preparing to return to your communication sector a few hours later. While this will be the Moon’s first visit since the asteroid Juno, the queen of commitment returned to your relationship sector 10 days ago, with Venus having already moved through your communication sector, you have a head start when it comes to giving your heart and your relationships a voice.

Having the Moon in your romantic sector during the Sun’s last full day in Leo is doing more than just bringing your birthday month to a romantically charged end. As well as a friendly aspect to the three planets in an adventurous part of your chart, having the Sun and Moon in harmony is a chance to look to the future and the journey ahead with confidence and optimism. At the same time, more aware this year of what you want from your relationships and what they need from you.

As you reach the last full day of your old solar year and as you prepare for the Sun’s return to Virgo tomorrow, even on the romantic front there is a sense of anticipation in the air. Already in harmony, by the time the Sun returns to Virgo tomorrow, the Moon will be in your romantic sector, getting your birthday month and new solar year off to a romantically charged start.

Having the Moon in your communication sector as a clash between Venus in Libra and Saturn in your relationship sector peaks is turning what could be a challenge into an opportunity. While as the planet of love, Venus will be using any tension between your own and your relationship needs to better understand what you want from your relationships, having the communication lines open helps. Especially with the Moon at a friendly aspect to Mercury, the planet of communication today.

As the Moon approaches its return to your communication sector tomorrow, while something that every four weeks will make it easier to give your emotional responses a voice, with a lot more importance this time when it comes to working with this. As well as the Moon’s first visit since Juno, the queen of commitment returned last week, this will be its first visit since Chiron, the planet of healing turned retrograde in your relationship sector.

The Moon is not only in Sagittarius during the Sun’s last full day in an adventurous part of your chart but is adding to the link he and Mercury have already made to the three planets in your romantic sector, all in retrograde motion. While there has been a mix of romance, adventure and nostalgia in the air all week, just as you are moving into the weekend and before things take a busier turn, this is reaching its peak.

Waiting for the Moon’s return to Capricorn tomorrow and the Sun’s return to an adventurous part of your chart a few hours later is Chiron, in his early weeks in retrograde motion in your romantic sector. Both will spend their early hours at a friendly aspect and it is over the weekend that this will see a mix of romance, adventure and nostalgia spike but also linger.

It is just as the Sun has reached his last full day in your relationship sector, as Mercury will do when he leaves early next week and the Moon will continue to do every four weeks, that he is crossing the lunar nodes. Less than four weeks after they returned, this is putting the solar spotlight on the lunar nodes’ new 20 month policing of a balance between your own and your relationship needs.

Ahead of the Sun’s return to your relationship sector tomorrow and Mercury, the planet of communication’s return two days later, the focus is still on Mars and the dwarf planet Ceres as they draw to the end of their first full week in your romantic sector. While the two will go hand in hand and there are important weeks ahead on the romantic and relationship fronts, today you are able to make it just about matters of the heart.
